Synaptics Touchpad Driver

Synaptics Touchpad Driver is a custom solution for owners of laptops whose touchpad hardware was rendered unusable or unrealizable due to the software corruption of their official touchpad driver. With decades of experience in working with countless hardware variations of touchpads under Microsoft Windows OS, Synaptics Touchpad Driver can offer users not only an easy way to restore functionality to their touchpad, but also imbue it with a wide array of additional features that are usually not commonly supported by the official driver solutions from other manufacturers.

Let’s start from the beginning. Synaptics Touchpad Driver can be installed on any modern Windows PC (running Windows 7, 8, or 10), using a streamlined installer that will ask the user to just follow few simple on-screen instructions. Restart after the app is installed is highly desirable to allow Windows OS to properly detect all of its hardware accessories and load their linked drivers.

With the laptop touchpad now up and running, the users can start exploring all the new features that were added by this highly useful driver utility. By default, the touchpad powered by this advanced Synaptics driver can now properly detect single finger touches, control on-screen apps with common two-finger moves (vertical or horizontal scrolling, zooming, and rotating), and even add three-finger moves such as rapid scrolling (also known as “flicking”). For users who want to take even greater control over their daily work on PC, a four-finger downward flick can minimize your currently active desktop app. One of the best of the advanced options enabled by this driver is a continuous scrolling move with the use of a two-way circular pattern. Other supported features are Top, Right, and Left-edge swipe controls, use of “hot corners” for the quick activation of several user-defined apps, and support for using touchpad as a small drawing canvas.

Synaptics Touchpad Driver also comes with its own configuration tool that features three main tabs – Sensitivity, Buttons, and Gestures. This tool allows configuration pointer speed, touch pressure, adjusting palm rejection sensitivity, button shortcuts, gesture optimization, and more. It even enables a feature that is rarely supported by generic touchpad drivers – the ability to turn the touchpad ON or OFF!

Because of the presence of so many advanced features, Synaptics Touchpad Driver is today regarded not only as a valid replacement for any touchpad driver that can greatly benefit anyone’s daily workflow but also as a great accessibility tool that can help people with limited hand use to take better advantage of their laptop hardware and more easily interact with their PCs.

Synaptics Touchpad Driver is 100% free and is optimized for Windows 7, 8, and 10.
